Hey Chele'
Hope you are doing ok? I spoke to my surgeon yesterday and he told me that Physical Therapy won't be neccessary unless I can not straighten my arm and I can drive when I stop using the pain meds. I know I made the right decision to proceed with the surgery: He tested my hand and arm strength yesterday and it has worsen since my first evaluation. Let me know how you are doing?

Glad to hear about your baby girl. I assume dh is your husband and I'm sorry to hear that he won't be around. I bet you end up feeling more comforted by your mom any way. My sister is coming for me. I will keep you in my prayers.

Well Chele' the count continues....surgery in two days. My sister is coming tomorrow so in case I do not get to the computer, I wanted to wish you well and to let you know that I will say a prayer for you. Don't forget to look for me after you feel well enough to either get on the computer OR get someone else to post a note that you are OK! Take Care and God Bless,

Hi Shelby,
Sorry I have not posted sooner. alot going on. My Mother is not coming up for my surgery, my Grandmother is not doing to well, so I told her to stay home and take care of her. That is where she sould be. So I had to find someone else to take me to the hosp. I asked my sons girlfriend. I had no one else to ask. My son is at basci training for the Army and My hubby is In the Army and left today. SO I am left with the other 3 children and they cant drive. So I had to find someone.
She said she would. SO Thanks God.

I will say a Big Prayer for you also. I hope that all goes well and I am glad that your sister is coming to help you.

`

Have one question: How long is your surgery going to take? I have no idea.

As Soon as I can I will post, I will also look for you to post when you can.

You just take care and I will talk to you later.
Many Hugs and Blessings, Chele'
